Compatible with windows 98

unironically this

>he took his autism to another thread
not getting enough attention in the other one?

>If the Hitman thread is allowed to be up, then any computer game that supports Windows 98 should be allowed to aswell.
Not all of it. While Counter-Strike can run well while not satisfying the system requirements, there's still some games that wouldn't run on a 1999 computer. It should be valued game by game

>1999 computer
see:

I'm not him. The OP literally says "1999 computer" computer

3 options:
1. Mod makes a list of all Windows 98 supporting games that can be played on... BAHAHAHA not gonna happen.
2. Mod writes on the sticky that PC games have to be made before Jan 1st, 2000.
3. Mod throws his hands up in the air and lets the rabble figure it out while arbitrary deleting whatever threads he wants(currently happening)

3. Would be fine if the not retro reeeeeee peeps could contain themselves to just reporting and ignoring

>I'm not him
having another identity crisis?

You have no idea who I am

well, I know you aren't very earnest.

I see what you mean, my problem isn't that I don't think it deserves "retro status". My problem is that the rules need to be less vague. If he posted that Windows 98 games are allowed, so long as they aren't made for Windows XP, then I'd be fine with that.

This. I was ballin with my 64mb and TNT card.

The guy that posted 'natively supports glide' was pretty good, at least for 3d games.

Schizo.
I vote option 3 because it keeps the zoomers from being able to discuss shit games while providing lots of comedic value as they cry, like your post.

Okay, but a clearly defined line in the sand is always nice...

Don't reply to the faggot
Rememmber this is a CS thread, keep it on topic

gamesystemrequirements.com/game/counter-strike

This here says the minimum requirement is 96MB which sounds much more accurate.

Glad we could use this thread as a opportunity to discuss counterstrike, it was a fun time

I don't know. The site also mentions "Windows XP" in Minimun system requirements. Then again, some games can run well below minimun systen requirements

Alright let's settle this. Post your:

It certainly didn't require 256MB of RAM in any case. The game came out a year before Windows XP.

never played it even though it was a meme game for over a decade. i played quake 3 on low tier pentium ii school PCs, with no GPU, and probably only max 64MB RAM. Q3 ran smoothly 800x600.

>gamesystemrequirements.com
the site is dumb and the users/admin are babies who probably seen a win98 machine their entire lives.

>then any computer game that supports Windows 98 should be allowed to aswell.
this should be allowed if consolefaggotry get dreamcast.

To the OP, I'm sorry I provoked these people, I really just want you to have the Counter Strike thread you deserve.

I also agree that basically the rules should be reposted with a new date code, maybe correcting retro to vintage and clarifying windows games

I hope you guys aren't arguing over whether CS is retro because it was playable for the public for like half of 1999.

And this is why "retro" should be pre-1995, period.
CS1.6 is just as modern as anything released today. It's a dumb, poorly done clusterfuck of a multiplayer shooter. Same could be said about nearly all games released in the late 90s -- in some way, they're just as modern as today's garbage and should not be considered "retro".

here's system requirements off the big box edition

We're trying not to, but people keep barging in and arguing on the contrary.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
DELETE THIS

*Tips Fedora*

The question is how well. If you are willing and capable to sit through a single digit slideshow, would a much more recent game count too?

no need to be so defensive, the game came out in 1999 either way (the original mod up to 1.5, not the commercial version of 1.6, so be careful about that)

>i personally don't like this game, exclude it

This thread is about CS 1.6.
Not CS 1.0.

>this game is like {new game}, mods pls ban

Also OP, if you want to discuss CS, just specify 1.5 since that was available for a good chunk of 99, and if the occasional 1.6 discussion pops up then let it be, since the coping autists won't care at that point

Is everyone here retarded? Mods are allowed, version number is irrelevant. CS 2.0 could be a thing tomorrow and revive the game to new heights of popularity and it would still be valid to have massive threads about it.

it hasn't been a mod since 1.6 (2000)
it's still totally compatible with 1999 hardware though, of course (i mean, come on, people, you think anyone would make a game that doesn't run on harware less than a year old?)

The commercial release is a continuation of the mod.

sorry, 1.6 was 2003, 1.0 was 2000
the mod started in 1999, and was playable in 1999, but didn't get a 1.0 release until 2000
still, the requirements didn't change, i don't believe there's any significant differences between 1.5 and 1.6 besides the valve seal of approval
yes, sorry for the confusion, i can see how my post might suggest there's a significant divergence between the mod and the commercial release

CS became an "actual game" in 2000, so if a new version came out, it wouldn't be allowed since it would be past the cutoff, a sold thing, and probably wouldn't run on the hardware it used to. But the fags nitpicking about the system requirements 1.5 or 6 have brain worms and don't understand how stupid it would be to release a game that isn't able to run on hardware that was recent at the time.

The sticky says nothing about """actual""" games, just games launched in 1999 or earlier. And Counter-Strike has always been a game.

>i don't believe there's any significant differences between 1.5 and 1.6 besides the valve seal of approval
Wrong.
Dumbass.
Graphics were improved and the game was much more demanding on hardware.
Stupid retard zoomer who wasn't there
>i don't believe
How about keeping your clueless guesses to yourself and only posting when you have factual information for a change?

I kinda get what you're saying. A lot of games that pretty much defined later generations were made in the late 90s. Every modern Mario game is based around Mario 64 (98), every modern Zelda game is based around OoT (98), Half-Life (98) started the corridor shooter trend that almost all modern shooters are based on.

Counter-Strike is a weird one though, because there aren't really any mainstream games that play like it. There are indie games like Insurgency, but for the most part it's fairly unique. Newer shooters like Call of Duty resemble GoldenEye more than CS:S.

since posting that i found an actual list of changes
liquipedia.net/counterstrike/Cs16_patches/2003-01-16_Patch
>Graphics were improved and the game was much more demanding on hardware.
yea, no

mario 64 is from 1996
counter-strike (1999) is like a simplified version of rainbow six (1998)

My bad. I thought they both came out the same year.
>counter-strike (1999) is like a simplified version of rainbow six (1998)
That's kind of an absurd claim. CS is pretty distinct. I don't think you see too many people bunny hopping around rainbow six 1 Juan Deag'ing their friend on a trippy ass custom map and then switching to a surf server when they're bored.

bunny hopping and surfing were more engine "features" than game features, they were inherented from half-life/goldsrc as opposed to being intentional CS game designs
i'm talking about basic intended gameplay, not so much how the games actually ended up being played

Even then that's a stretch. CS has a weird aim system where if you are moving and shooting at the same time your bullets will go everywhere, but at the same time 1 shot to the head usually is an instant kill depending on if you have armor and what gun the person is using. It also makes you sit out for the entire duration of the round if you get killed. Really I don't see the similarities other than aesthetic.

i'm not trying to claim large similarities, just that they're both fps games where you have a law enforcement side and a terrorist side, the types of environments and equipment are also similar

Lads I have a question ,I got into playing cs 1.6 on windows xp but then when I tried to play it on windows 7 the mouse movement feels totally different as if it’s been smoothed out even with the exact same settings,I find it unplayable what’s going on here ?

Mouse acceleration?
Are you using a different, more sensitive mouse?

>Counter Strike requires at least 256MB of RAM
Ran it on PC with just 64MB back in the day and had 0 issues.

>Wasn't published prior 1st of January of 2000
>B-but why it isn't accepted
Read. The. Sticky.

It's almost like all fags complaining about this or that game not being allowed on /vr/ are illiterate and can't get through that sticky.

>Muh arbitrary cutoff date

The sticky actually says that the “cutoff” refers to when the “platform” itself came out.

Let’s see him come crawling back after this one.

Did your game turn on vsync? Have you tried limiting your FPS to the monitors' refresh rate?

Why does it have to specifically be a pre-built? Especially since even back then I was putting together my own systems.
Either way, if you were willing to spend out the ass, you could have bought a Falcon Northwest Mach V with that amount of RAM.

Are you the autist that spazzed out in the Hitman thread? The part that owned you was never "it can run on X-lol", it was that the game was LITERALLY developed for win95/98.

here's your 256M prebuilt from 1999, bro

This is a Counter Strike thread, so make like a tree and fuck off.

you must live a sad life, lol

>2. Mod writes on the sticky that PC games have to be made before Jan 1st, 2000.
already the case
see (You)
>>--> computer games [...] launched in 1999 and earlier

We can all see your agenda. Go back to your Sonic vs Mario console war threads and let the rest of the board actually talk about games for once.

just stop responding
sick of valid threads getting bogged down by "i can't read the rules and i hate halo" faggot(s)

Lol you illiterate retard. Put the full post there and read it like normal English. Computer games follow the same rules as everything else.

>This board is for the discussion of classic, or "retro" games. Retro gaming means consoles, computer games, arcade games (including pinball) and any other forms of video games on platforms launched in 1999 and earlier.

This is exactly what is on the sticky, stop misquoting shit just because you're ass-pained. It says on PLATFORMS launched in 1999 or earlier, it doesn't specify the release date for PC games.

They're the ones doing the trolling. Only mocking them for being too stupid to reas basic English will eventually make them shut up. They'll never stop otherwise since the whole point is to derail threads about games they don't like.

They're illiterate entitled children, treat them as such and chastise them fir their abject stupidity.

...

you mention misquoting yet you imply PC games are not specified (guess what "computer games" are and what "PC" stands for)
[personal] computer games are explicitly mentioned in the sentence

full sentence from sticky
>Retro gaming means consoles, computer games, arcade games (including pinball) and any other forms of video games on platforms launched in 1999 and earlier.

factually correct reasoning
>consoles [...] launched in 1999 and earlier
>computer games [...] launched in 1999 and earlier
>arcade games (including pinball) [...] launched in 1999 and earlier
> any other forms of video games on platforms [...] launched in 1999 and earlier

illiterate reasoning
>consoles [on platforms launched in 1999 and earlier.],
>computer games [on platforms launched in 1999 and earlier],
>arcade games (including pinball) [on platforms launched in 1999 and earlier]
>and any other forms of video games [on platforms launched in 1999 and earlier]

the reach on the point about computer games with this reasoning makes no sense on two other points, hence it's invalid

>computer games [...] launched in 1999 and earlier
You just pulled that out of your ass.

Yep, doesn't feel retro.

it's the same ESL "shitposter" from yesterday who struggles with understanding the 2 carefully worded sentences in the sticky.

>that time some user got Crysis running on a heavily modded win98

He purposefully misunderstands them so he can keep derailing threads he doesn't like.

only struggle are the shitposters trying to change the rules by mass rioting with non-retro threads

"if X hasn't been instantly punished, I am allowed to do same thing as well" is not valid reasoning

The threads are about retro games though. PC games follow the same rules as all other kinds of games here which is explicitly stated in the sticky.

We all know why you don't like PC threads but your whiny bias doesn't mean anything.

I played CS with 32 mb RAM or something in 1999, I specifically remember having to upgrade from 16 mb because my Voodoo 2 wouldn't work with CS otherwise.

>PC games follow the same rules as all other kinds of games here which is explicitly stated in the sticky.
computer games (not computers/computer hardware) are listed explicitly and separately from consoles (not console games)

>projecting bias again
for your information, i play exclusively computer games
i like '00+ games but i don't break rules and make threads about them

there is another board that allows video games from any period of time -

Garbage game that ruined fps along with Half Life, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Quake 2, Medal of Honor, Call of Duty, Halo.
Retro fps gamers hate it.

I played a lot of retro FPS and I love HL, CS and Quake 2. Not every FPS should play exactly like Doom

so it runs on 1999 /vr/ hardware. is janny gonna delete this thread anyway?

>CS became an "actual game" in 2000, so if a new version came out,
if true then all the consolefag remakes of FF, Tactic Ogre, etc etc should be deleted. i don't see janny doing that though i should they're consolefags who allowed dreamcast so....

That’s CS 1.0. Thread is about CS 1.6

I don’t see how becoming an “actual game” has got anything to do with this. For me, the last version of CS I have played was 0.7 beta which I installed from a PC Gamer cover CD in 1999 or 2000. The game was very popular even while it was in beta.

Best map for LAN sessions.

I was wondering where you went to, I figured you got tossed into the streets finally

I dreamed with this place a long time ago

>computer games (not computers/computer hardware) are listed explicitly and separately from consoles (not console games)

No they are not.

>i like '00+ games but i don't break rules and make threads about them

Then I guess you're just horribly stupid and avoid making threads you could but don't. Ahh well lol
